When was this model implemented? Prior to the season; or was it some strategic gamesmanship by the conference?
Prior to this season for sure. This is UTRGV's first season in the SLC, so I can't vouch for prior years.

You have it pretty much exactly. The top two regular season teams each host one side of the bracket. The top seeded teams to win each side advance to the championship series. The championship series is hosted by the highest seeded of the remaining two teams.
I love it. Rewards winning a lot of regular season games, which is a weakness in a lot of post-season conference tourneys IMO. Also gives home field advantage, which is great. Really great for UTRGV, which will put 6000 fans in the stands for all of their games down there.

UTRGV update:
Southland tourney starts tomorrow. Vaqueros hosting their side of the bracket. Stadium will be absolutely bonkers, and we will be there. Super happy for #10. He’s been on a little roll lately and I sure hope he keeps it up. Proud dad moments for sure. We’ve talked a lot over the past couple of months about Jahdae Barron’s quote (paraphrased): “It’s important to stay committed to the process without being emotionally tied to the result.” Great quote, especially for baseball.
Current D1 baseball regional projections have me real excited to see them in Austin again.

Next stop for the Valley Boys: Austin! Should be fun. My boy scored the winning run to run rule SFA today, 12-2. Didn’t play at all for the entire game, got a chance to pinch run for Armani and made it count. Fun stuff.

We need a clear bag policy for the outside bag.

UTRGV scores 2 in the top 9th to make it close, but ultimately falls to TCU 4-3
My son was the last out. Love the game, but man that sorta thing is just brutal sometimes. Baseball players and field goal kickers... gotta leave that last one in the rear view mirror and not look back.

I don’t know, but both started with idiotic coaching hires.

Comparing Akina and Larry Johnson's resumes is some really pedantic shit. Both are stellar.
Heard Burton and Babers talking about Akina. He had put over 40 players in the league by 2022. There was apparently a 10-year stretch when every starter at corner under Akina played in the NFL. Some of the very best DBs I've ever seen at Texas were coached by this guy.
Yes, he's 68. Speaking of Larry Johnson, that dude is still doing it at 73. Texas' staff is going to change a lot going forward. Hiring a coach who is going to be here long-term would be great, but it's just not going to happen all the time. Akina can still coach. We don't need a coach for the next ten years. We need one now. Because we are in a championship window. Now.

Jason Burleson.
I was really excited to receive a subscription to Robert Heard's Inside Texas newsletter (an actual snail mail, paper newsletter about UT sports) for my birthday back in 1987 or 1988. Heard talked Burleson up something fierce. Listed him at 6'7", explained how that height was going to produce a QB the likes of which the world had never seen. Pretty sure he ended up at TE and never really did much.

UTRGV just beat #20 Dallas Baptist 15-5
First time beating a ranked team since 2003. They played at Globe Life because of the weather. Those boys were super jacked about the whole experience.

Why anyone would want to be a part of the Cowboys' organization in any capacity is beyond me. Intentional mediocrity. As long as they're on the front page and worth the most money, they don't give a shit.

I feel like all the announcements by guys who are out of eligibility is an acknowledgement that you can play for as many years as you want as long as you have a good lawyer.
Nah, I like it. It’s announcing to the world that they are going pro even if it’s their only option. Lots of high school players and their parents might not know. And keeps us front and center. Keep them coming.-

Based on Helobius’ recent assessment, KJ Lacey will be our first Heisman winner at QB

Drives me crazy that their punter got hurt and we STILL weren't looking for the fake.
Felt the same way about the last play. They send in Beck with a broken arm and we STILL couldn't stop that run up the gut.

Maybe because they didn’t call Elko for delay of game during his sweaty endless diatribe

Watched with my (almost) grown kids last night. At one point Elko lifted his hat up and my daughter said,
”Holy crap what happened to his hairline?”
Son responded immediately,
“He ate it!”

Highly rated baseball prospects are nice, but how many will make it to campus?
None of them, if they aren’t recruited and don’t commit and/or sign.

Are you taking about white flight from Schertz, Selma, Universal City, Cibolo?
Interesting.
In regards to SA republicans and their German catholic origins, San Antonio has a fascinating political history.
If you go back, there were political alliances that bucked national trends and would be a fun ‘Yellowstone meets Centennial’ type of story if anyone ever wanted to make one. Freed African Americans allying with German Catholics that held together even after the national shift to the democratic party later in the 20th century. Hell there were rich ass cattle driving Jews as well! Crazy stuff.
Maybe some from those areas but I’m mostly talking about the more affluent portions of Northside and Northeast ISD inside 1604.

There's a lot of white flight from north and northeast San Antonio towards NB and Boerne and all points in between. And a whole lot of the people I know are moving/have moved into this belt at least in part because of its social and political conservatism. The whole area has been red for as long as I've been around it (~35 years). German Americans and others frequently fall into that category of R's that despise Trump but don't have the moxy to jump ship.
